The Essential Product Lineup

To maximize the efficacy of your products, it is important to understand their roles and how they function together. Each product in your skincare routine plays a specific role that contributes to achieving a healthy, glowing complexion.

  • Cleansing: Begin with an oil-based cleanser to remove makeup and impurities. Follow with the Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser (a water-based or gel-based cleanser) for a deep, thorough clean.

  • Chemical Exfoliation: Use The Ordinary AHA 30% + BHA 2% Peeling Solution to gently lift away dead skin cells.

  • Toning: Apply The Ordinary Glycolic Acid 7% Toning Solution to balance the skin's pH.

  • Targeted Serum: Address specific concerns like uneven tone with the Anua Niacinamide + TXA Serum.

  • Eye Care: Gently apply the Medicube Eye Cream using light tapping motions to address fine lines or dark circles.

  • Hydration: Lock in moisture with the Cerave Daily Moisturizing Lotion.

  • Protection: Always finish your morning routine with SPF 50 or higher to protect against UV damage and ensure it blends well without leaving a white cast.

  • Body Care: Extend your routine by using the Kojic Acid Bar Soap for cleansing, follow with OES Body Lotion, and seal everything in with Bio-Oil Skincare Oil.

The Step-by-Step Layering Process

To achieve the best results, it is essential to apply your products in the correct sequence—typically from the thinnest texture to the thickest—to ensure maximum absorption.

  1. Cleansing: Use your oil-based cleanser followed by the Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser.

  2. Chemical Exfoliation: Apply The Ordinary AHA 30% + BHA 2% Peeling Solution.

  3. Toner: Apply The Ordinary Glycolic Acid 7% Toning Solution. Wait about 10 minutes after applying to ensure the toner is fully absorbed before moving to the next step.

  4. Serum: Apply the Anua Niacinamide + TXA Serum to address specific concerns like texture or tone.

  5. Eye Care: Gently apply the Medicube Eye Cream using light tapping motions.

  6. Moisturizer/SPF: Apply the Cerave Daily Moisturizing Lotion. If using this in the morning, ensure you apply a product with SPF 50 or higher to protect against UV damage.

  7. Body Care: Use the Kojic Acid Bar Soap in the shower, follow with OES Body Lotion, and apply Bio-Oil Skincare Oil as the final step.

Pro-Tips for Success

For optimal results in your skincare routine, consider these pro-tips:

  • Patch Testing: Always perform a patch test on a small area of skin before applying potent products like The Ordinary AHA 30% + BHA 2% Peeling Solution to your entire face to ensure you do not have an adverse reaction.
